FVWM: fvwm is drawing phantom windows

Sometimes if i switch from one desktop to another, fvwm (2.4.8-3)
drawn a window there that belonged on the previous desktop. I can
bring this window to the foreground, after which no other window can
be put on top of it, but I can not type in it, or move it, or click
any of its title bar buttons. Restarting fvwm doesn't make this
window go away, so I need to exit and restart the server.

Anyone seen anything like this? This behaviour started only recently,
but its onset does not coincide with any upgrade/mod to my system
that I know of.
